Something to ponder. I have read/heard that there is a lot of communication going on between N.K. and Iraq. What if N.K. decided that if/when we start in on Iraq, they decided to launch a massive invasion of S.K.?

Well, then there would be no North Korea within 6 months and the ROK would have nearly doubled in size.
The end state is clear. However, the casualties (I for one will likely not be around to post again) will be enormous. Seoul and all significant points north would be nearly decimated by artillery. Tedanee anjohaiyo.

I am very proud, revengeful, ambitious, with more offenses at my beck than I have thoughts to out them in, imagination to give them shape, or time to act them in. What should such fellows as I do crawling between Earth and Heaven?

Nothing is going to happen in NK. Dont worry about it. The only thing about NK to worry about is that they ship long range ballistic missile technology or nukes to nutcase clients that couldn't develop it otherwise.

Those kind of questions are really tough to answer for OPSEC reasons. However - here is some good open-source info: [url]http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/ops/oplan-5027.htm[/url]

In no way would I want OPSEC compromised. [;)] Quite familiar with it. I have a friend there now. I was more interested thing like which units. I.E., we know that the 3rd Inf just got sent to the gulf. I wasnt sure what the overall makeup of our S.K. forces were, in that would they be enough to hold ground until reinforcments arrived.
